Are you the type of person who is conservative in everything but your politics?

I think I am. I'm not a big person on unnecessary change. To me, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

This is sort of inspired by the whole new ratings system here at DU, because I just don't like it. There. I said it.

1. No
Not liking something doesn't necessarily mean you are conservative.

I don't really like the new system..I don't like the placement. And I think that it may turn into a monster. I think the system could be abused.


But then again, I don't really know why I am getting all worked up about it. I will get used to it and it'll be no big deal.

3. Sort of true.
But the word Conservative has become so intertwined with Right Wing Nuttery that I usually avoid the term. But as I get older I do tend to think less about the things I'd like to change and more about the things I'd prefer not to change. Something like that.
